My site is hosted on my ISP's free webspace, and it works fine when you use
their URL. But I want people to be able to access the site by using my
domain name (which uses a frame and URL masking?).
The problem is, when you access the site by using the domain name, the whole
site effectively becomes a sub frame, and so my cookies get blocked because
they are treated as "third party" cookies.
After looking into it, it seems I needed a Privacy Policy.
So I created a Privacy Policy in accordance with the guidelines at
http://www.w3.org/P3P/ but I can never get the browser to take any notice of
it.
My development site is:
http://members.aol.com/cororguk/
My policy file is in the "well-known location":
http://members.aol.com/cororguk/w3c/p3p.xml
I have also tried explicitly declaring the location in the header of all my
Web pages with:
<link rel="P3Pv1" href="http://members.aol.com/cororguk/w3c/p3p.xml">
But whatever I try, I have never been able to get IE6 to take notice of
the policy. For instance, when you click View -> Privacy Policy, IE reports
that it could not find a privacy policy. Or as another example, if you goto
www.cor.org.uk , click the "Download Cor!T programs" link, then click to
yellow link at the top, you'll be taken to the site in question (within a
frame) and see that the cookies are blocked.
Where am I going wrong? Or is it IE? Any suggestions?
